My Boyfriend’s Family Turned My Birthday Dinner Into a Trap

On my thirtieth birthday, my boyfriend's mother invited me over for dinner, to talk about the wedding while we were at it.

But the moment I sat down, she put me in my place.

"You turn thirty today, and you know as well as I do that a woman's worth nose-dives once she passes thirty."

"If you want to marry my son, the dowry had better be eight hundred thousand dollars at the very least. Otherwise the Fox family has no use for an old woman like you."

I could hardly believe my ears.

"Isn't your son thirty too?"
